<B>$400</b> bucks!?!?!?!

I have the game and it's not that great. (Off to eBay I go!)

I know our store used to sell used copies for $130, but that was a while back, haven't seen one in forever.

It has fetched over $100 a couple of times if you look at the completed items for it, but $400 is absurd.

No game is worth that....

Not this particular game, but some game is worth it :)

That thing is unbelievably rare. It also sucks as a game. Most people who buy it are hardcore Dragonball collectors and don't even play it once they get it. I know someone who has a copy mint in wrapping.

As far as the $400 current bid price, I agree, it's a scam.

I sold an old player 2 pink Konami Light Gun for the Sega Genesis for $50 just a couple of weeks ago. I'm shocked sometimes at how much ebay people will pay for stuff.

Some people just carried away, if you do a search for the same exact item, there's probably another item available for a lower price, even a buy it now. It just boggles the mind, or maybe this is just a scam.

I have seen this game get close to $200 on ebay before, but never close to that amount. I don't care if it is brand new, NO video game is worth that type of money.

The bidder is fake, look at their feedback. The pink genesis gun is very rare, though I wouldn't pay $50 for it. I'm about to put my GC keyboard on Ebay.

My brother has a copy, how much do they usually run for?

And the guy has a higher reserve on it. He is not even happy getting $400 for it.

I Did buy this game for $20.00 when 1st comming out... Played it couple times Beat the game (the game itself below average) Display the game somewhere ........Lucky, I found it........Some ebay Pay meehh $175.00 for this Rare Used Game. :)

What is this statement based on? Why is something that people personally find silly labeled a "scam"?

scam - To defraud; swindle.

I have no interest in Dragonball Z, or this game, but this auction is in no way a scam. The seller is not selling a bootleg w/ a vague, intentionally misleading description. The seller isn't even selling information (not really a scam).

The auction has a reserve price (not yet met) and 26 bids.

Calling this auction a "scam" is ridiculous, it bothers me because people that label auctions like this a "scam" most likeley go around discrediting eBay for other false reasons.

You could say "$500 for that game is ridiculous"

I agree that their are scammers on eBay, but this is most certainily not one.

I've been on eBay for almost 6 years, and trust me... there are ways to scam the system.

Granted, this guy has a rare game. Hell, some people have even paid close to $130 for it in past auctions. But this auction just doesn't add up.

All it takes is this guy to have 3 friends around the country. Each one places a bid at different times, making it look to the masses that this game is worth $400+

In the last 48 hours of his auction, two of the highest bids have come from people who have either +1, or 0 feedback. In fact, one of those bidders hasn't even been on eBay for the last 2 weeks. His account was made on Feb 1st.

If the above mentioned scenario is true... then it makes this auction a scam. Simple as that.

Then again, maybe people are just bidding stupid.

I'm not trying to discredit eBay. Hell, I make too much money off of it.

But I do smell a scam.

keyser, i see your point, if there are fake bidder, but no one is forcing anyone to bid to $400, they are making that decsion themselves..... if you scenario is true, the item would be up for sale again in a week at a lower price.
